the girl on a motorcyle (1968)

AKA Naked Under Leather.
"Rebellion is the only thing that keeps you alive!"
Rebecca (Marianne Faithfull) is a newlywed who leaves her husband (Roger Mutton) on her prized motorbike, to escape and visit her lover in Heidelberg. Whilst journeying across Germany she reminisces and relives her changing relationship with the two men. One a staid teacher, the other (Alain Delon) a rebel figure.
A road movie with a difference, being that it features a woman as the protagonist. It is a product of its time, with many psychedelic passages.
